i would like to see what kind of money you are putting into this so far....but if you dont want to disclose that info i understand...

btw....are you going to do about your rear end? are you going to have the axles redrilled for the new lug pattern in the Expy 8.8? or are you getting new axles for the Expy 8.8

the reason i got the axle i did is because it is 5 on 4.5 lug pattern.


as far as money.. i have a running list in excel and i dont want to add it up, when i look at it i want to cry. i will share some prices and part numbers once i have everything

adjustable coil spacer, allows me to adjust the height of the truck within a range of ~3"

this will help eliminate the ranger lean on the drivers side
